DON'T BE TOO SMART.

Smartness is something like fire.
A certain amount of it, kept under
control, is very useful and effective
element; but too much of it is dang
erous. This is Illustrated every day
in business and social life. The smart
man booms ahead until he gets up
too much steam, and all of a sudden
there is a wreck. This kind of smart
ness looks upon the world as lum.
bering old coach. Ordinary business
is too slow for it. 1t wants to travel
at lightning express speed all the
time. 1t wants to be perpetually
starting schemes like Colonel Sellers.
1t tries to manipulate all the work it
enters into. Occasionally it makes
fortunes. Oftener it loses them.
Unusual smartness is necessarily
a speculative quality. 1t will. not be
bound down by rules of business. It
scars. Instead of trying to climb
the ladder, it attempts to fly up to
the top at once. 1t fails to see that
all substantial success is the product
of energetic accumulation. 1t will
not learn the lesson OF patient in
dustry from the lives of great men.
1t closes its eyes to the fact that in all
enterprise prudence and hard work
are the secrets of permanent results.
1t shoots high. Sometimesit hits, but
mostly it misses. Too much smart.
ness is dangerous not only to itself,
but to all who believe in it.-Ameri-
can.

Hardly had he congratulated him.
self, when far behind-but unmis-
takeably-he heard the scream OF
the " Lightning's whistle. He was
going already at his topmost speed.
He was making not more than
thirty-five miles an hour, while the
" Lightning" was coming on at the
rate of SIXTY. With horror he heard
lit gaining on him; the next whistle
was nearer, and at length when he
had made only two thirds the dis

came shooting round a wooded curve
in his rear.
Out of the very despair Of the
moment Dave gathered calmness.
He turned his back on the pursuing

looked straight ahead, kept his eye
on the track, his mind on his duty.
He is almost there-he is there,
he dashes past the station-house,
across the switch and down at last
upon the side track.
1t is all right. Jake and Jim are
there. They have thrown the switch
back in time; and the "Lightning"
goes whizzng and shrieking past.
When Jake jumped aboard the
" Meteor" his son tainted dead away
